About New York Civic Center

Civic Center, also referred to as the City Hall, is a neighborhood
in downtown Manhattan which surrounds New York City’s City Hall.
Bounded by China Town on the north and the Financial District to the south,
the Civic Center neighborhood is between Broadway and the East River.
This area is home to many government offices and municipal buildings.
Civic Center is famous for its many architectural landmarks, such as St.
Paul's Chapel, the Woolworth Building, the Park Row Building and the Brooklyn
Bridge. Older structures are currently being converted into new residential
and commercial buildings. Real estate is available within view of famous
buildings such as the Tweed Courthouse, the Manhattan Municipal Building
and St. Peters Church.

The area around City Hall is commonly referred to as Manhattan's Civic
Center. Most of the neighborhood consists of government offices (city,
state and federal), as well as an increasing number of upscale residential
dwellings being converted from older commercial structures. Architectural
landmarks such as St. Paul's Chapel, St. Peters Church, the Woolworth
Building, Tweed Courthouse, the Manhattan Municipal Building, the Park
Row Building and the Brooklyn Bridge surround City Hall. City Hall Park
is approximately three blocks away from the site of the former World
Trade Center.

Lower Manhattan will become the world’s first 21st century city,
incorporating the best practices in urban design, green buildings and
technology, transportation, and economic development. It is altogether
fitting that Lower Manhattan show the way to a new urban future, in
much the same way that a century ago it became the first great 20th-century
high-rise city built around a modern metropolitan transportation system.
The city has a vision of a new downtown that builds on New York City’s
historic past, but takes it into a new era that will be the best of
its almost four centuries of existence.

The new Downtown is alive 24 hours a day, a place where people stroll
along narrow historic streets that anchor American leadership of the
global finance system, while simultaneously serving as a home to diverse
and economically integrated residential communities, stores, schools,
universities and new industries. It is a place with a remarkable number
of parks, with high quality public spaces where cars were once parked.
It is a regional and global center of culture. It is a place that draws
on the latest innovations in sustainable city design practices from
all over the world to craft a beautiful and prosperous place to live
and work. It is a place that honors those who died in a terrible act
of war on Sept. 11, 2001, by affirming and building upon our democratic
principles while moving forward into a more prosperous, enlightened,
efficient, inclusive and vital era.
